Where is Drayton park? What trains stop there? I'd normally get the train into Finsbury park and walk, but that seems to be right next to the stadium. :|

I'm a lazy git :shock:

Atcually, I've found it on streetmap.co.uk, its amazing how close it is to highbury. Its just round the corner from the Arsenal tube station. I'll probably start getting the tube from Finsbury Park to Drayton Park now, to save 10 minutes or so 8).

The site is massive, the bit i was at was very, very close to highbury and Arsenal station. I think that was the area where the bridge was.

It took a wander around there before the members day last Friday, and it (the Ash Grove site) was about a minute walk from the Arsenal station. They do their best to stop pictures being taken, they have gates all the way round, and then green netting going about 2 metres above them. Its certainly coming along, and I can't wait to see Cole/Toure/Campbell/Henry lead us out there in a couple of years time.

You mean that old Spud-supporter-woman and her cronies? I think they lost the legal battle. I suppose next they will chain themselves to the ground. Hopefully the constructors will just run em over.

Drayton Park isn't on the tube. Its an overland station, the line runs from Crouch Hill to Kings Cross I think, or Old Street/Moorgate from Welwyn Gardens. Not really sure but its definetely not a tube station.

You're still alright to get the tube to Finsbury Park (Vistoria) or to Arsenal (Piccadill). In fact, you could probably get off at Holloway Rd station and walk down now too. Same same same.

Doesn't surprise me. Arsenal would just throw 50 lawyers at them.
They wouldn't be able to compete financialy.
